it has been over a year now since the united states killed osama bin laden. the head of the group that attacked us on 9/11. it's a presidential election year. it's a year when one of the wars we launched after 9/11, the one that actually had a connection to 9/11, is a war that's still going on, but the other long war we launched after 9/11 has been ended in iraq. and all of those variables factor into decisions about how we mark this day as americans. but also how our leaders or our would be leaders mark it. how we commemorate 9/11 is a work in progress. we saw today a decision by the white house and the obama campaign to have vice president joe biden mark the day in a way that was not political. it was just about remembering the people who were lost that day and commemorating the sacrifices people have made in this country because of 9/11. while both sides in the presidential campaign suspended their negative ads for the day out of respect for the anniversary, there's no ban on campaigning today. there's no rule about what you can and cannot do. mitt romney

his poor judgment disqualifies him to be president of the united states. >> ari, given that, at that point last night at 10:25, whenever it was, full details weren't known. we didn't know if the attack was still going on. we knew one person was dead. we didn't know if they were an american citizen. we didn't know it was the ambassador. should he have just waited? is it inappropriate in the heat of a political campaign to weigh in when american lives are in the balance? >> well, that's a great question. but let me remind people what john kerry said about george bush in 2004 and certainly what barack obama said about john mccain and george bush in 2008. cornell has an interesting new standard. in 2012, the republican candidate should not weigh in at a time when there are deaths, talking about the interesting -- the important differences in foreign policy approaches. yet certainly that is exactly what john kerry did regularly to george bush, as was his right while people were dying in iraq and afghanistan, as it was barack obama's right. but i don't remember people criticizing john kerr
